Wednesday: Jenna Ortega Reveals She Is Utterly Shocked by the Huge Success of the Show

Actress Jenna Ortega never thought Wednesday would be so popular. The 20-year-old actress takes on the title role of the Netflix series that serves as a spin-off to The Addams Family franchise alongside the likes of Hollywood stars such as Catherine Zeta-Jones and Christina Ricci but admitted that she thought the show surpassed her expectations, reports aceshowbiz.com. “I didn’t expect the reaction. The (Wednesday) cast and I, I remember, we used to talk about it in Romania (where the show was filmed), we were like, ‘Hey, what do you think will happen with the show?’ Wednesday Star Jenna Ortega Shows Love to a Fan Holding Lesbian Flag at CCXP 2022 (Watch Viral Video).

She said: “I used to do a Disney show when I was younger. I was a little bit of a public figure, used to get recognised, or whatever. When I look back, I think I was so out of place. I didn’t understand where I was and you start to see Hollywood for the first time, and it’s a bit intimidating, a bit off-putting. I felt like I was a people’s princess. I didn’t really feel like myself. Then it started to slow down and I lived a pretty normal life!”
